Another crash in the exact same spot on lap 2. But pulled it together and passed a few people. Course was really great. The soft stuff is only bad for the smaller wheel guys and if you go too slow. The natural terrain MX stuff by the chevy dealer was really nice. The course was a lot of fun. Widowmaker was actually quite easy..they had watered it. People just needed to pick a good line thru the corner at the bottom.

So help me out here. Did you guys enter in race 10 or just do the 7:30 pre run? They used to call that the unclassified race. Widowmaker is steep! It was dry and rocky when I did it and the ridge was so dusty it was like riding in fog. lol

I'd like to see the entire course if you have the motivation to post it.

We did both. They had a 1-2 lap pre run called thunder laps on Sunday. They did post the times of the 4 fastest. But there was like 80 people. That was at 7:30 am. Then at 8:15, race 10 started...And we ran that too.

There was an unclassified race on Saturday morning and that is used as a pre run. It was nice to have a pre run on Sunday morning too as we weren't there on Saturday.

I will post the whole course with minimal editing....maybe even speed it up as it is fairly boring at 20 minutes per lap.

How about a full length and condensed version.

Did you both finish?

Maybe...I just downloaded widows movie maker today. There will be plenty of full length videos popping up as we found about 20 from last year.

We only finished 2 laps while most did 3.

I ran the 2nd and 3rd laps with numb hands. lol

Cool on the vids, I'd like to see them.
